Former Pink Floyd star Roger Waters is among the three highest paid music stars in the world in the past year, behind Madonna and Bruce Springsteen.
The 69-year-old musician has raked in around £14 million on the back of his The Wall live shows around the world, in which he has staged Floyd's 1979 album.
Roger began touring the album in 2010 and has moved on from arena venues to play stadium concerts around the world, with more than 70 shows in 2012. He resumes the tour this summer with at least 25 dates in Europe.
